Well, ClearCase supports removing any file revision, so rollback is
implemented by asking ClearCase to remove the current revision.
Maybe rollback can be implemented in a generic way by applying the
reverse patch between the current and previous revisions of the file
and than committing that change. This will not remove any revision
from the repository but will have the effect on the file contents as
a rollback.
Cheers,
Alex.
